From the minute we signed our contract with Julie at The Best Wedding For You, she was extremely helpful and took a load off our shoulders for planning our wedding. She setup calls...
for us with DJs and florists and even joined a couple of the florist calls to help us communicate our vision clearly. In the approaching weeks and months up to our wedding, she was extremely detail oriented and provided us with a detailed list of all possible considerations leading up to our wedding, from invites to honeymoon planning! She also took the reigns with coordination between our venue, The San Diego Safari Park, and all our vendors, so that we could focus on other aspects of our big day.

Julie is absolutely incredible!!! Highly recommend her!
We had the most perfect wedding and a lot of it was due to Julie. She was there with us from the beginning and had great v...
endor recommendations. She saved us from a potential cake disaster…our cake vendor unexpectedly closed without warning and we would have been clueless if it wasn’t for Julie! We were so impressed with how detailed oriented she was. Everything we told her that we liked or disliked, she kept track of and in meetings would bring those details up.
On the day of the wedding, she kept everything running so smoothly! The day just ran like magic and we had nothing to worry about because we knew Julie had it under control. Best was she made sure we got to eat undisturbed! The day went as perfect as it could.
Overall, Julie was incredibly easy to work with. She knows the industry well and all the vendors she recommended were incredible. We have zero regrets choosing Julie. 1000000% recommend her!

Julie came into our wedding preparation life after I had to let go of our first wedding planner (and let’s just say my spirits were low and some funds were already lost to paying o...
ur first vendor who was not a good fit to put it nicely). The universe had thrown us our saving grace in getting Julie as once she was onboard everything fell into place seamlessly. She was born to be planner. Organized, efficient, positive, calm, prepared and professional, Julie helped us achieve the most magical day that we will look back on with fondness for the rest of our lives. We had zero hiccups day of the event and that was thanks to Julie. She handles everything with such grace that even if things were starting to go off track you wouldn’t know as Julie resolves any issues as they arrive like a stealth ninja. Mind you we were trying to plan a wedding in San Diego while living in Reno in 6 months time since we lost months to the first planner and didn’t have anything to show for it. Also we were planning a full Latin Catholic mads at one location and reception at a second approximately 30 minutes away. We came down 2 times before the event to do tastings and review venue/decor/DJ/photography/videography/florals. Julie made itineraries for us and we knocked one thing off the list after another with ease and smiles. If you are on the fence as to whether you should get a planner or not I will tell you that it is WELL worth it and if you get Julie S. you’ve hit the jackpot. She truly did create The Best Wedding for us and cannot recommend her highly enough.

We worked with Julie for the last 3 months of our planning for our Darlington House wedding. What struck us most about Julie was her extensive experience, strong communication, and...
get-it-done attitude.
We were extremely fortunate to have Julie’s experience for our wedding planning. During our walk through, Julie’s experience came through as she shared examples of previous set ups she’s done and offered instant solutions to potential problems. We could really envision each decision and felt confident that we were avoiding potential pitfalls as Julie shared her reasoning behind certain recommendations. You could also tell how strong Julie’s relationships were with the wedding vendor community - every meeting was well-run and somehow fun, despite wedding planning decision fatigue.
Julie had strong communication throughout the planning. She would respond within a day (if not more quickly) and kept us updated when she had one or two short weekend trips to make sure everything was on track and to let us know she’d be slower for a couple of days. She also kept us on track by properly pacing out our decision points and always telling us what to start thinking about next.
During our wedding weekend, everything went like clockwork, thanks to Julie and the team quietly hustling in the background. Julie did a great job at adjusting to our guests and the flow of the evening. For example, when we realized that we were running late for family photos, Julie explained that she’d be happy to keep the doors closed for a few extra minutes or suggested taking the family photos upstairs to balance the guest experience. It was great to know Julie would always have a couple of great solutions to keep the party going! Everyone in our party remarked how easy she was to work with when things came up. We’d recommend her to all future couples!

Julie was amazing! Even from across the country she catered to our every need and desire while planning our wedding. My husband and I went through 3 military deployments during the...
planning process and she was able to work across time zones, emails, and keep us both informed on what was happening! She was always available to message and ask questions of or make requests. She managed all the vendors— I never had to do much more than let our wishes known. The day of our wedding went off without a hitch and I attribute that to Julie! I will be recommending her to all my friends!

e. The only “struggle” we had was the communication when we first booked. I think this was more out of a misunderstanding on our end of how much there would be early in the process, but as we got closer and closer to the actual day, Julie was there for every step of the process.
She answered our questions and gave great feedback. She planned every part of our timeline (which was super helpful!) and she made our venue come to life on the day of the wedding with our decorations.
She made sure we were where we were needed throughout the reception and she was incredibly kind and stress free throughout it all. Everyone in our wedding party had nothing but great things to say about Julie.
Worth every penny we paid here. Would definitely recommend her for any future wedding planning!

TL;DR: Julie was an absolute lifesaver for our weddings!
We had two events: a secular ceremony and traditional Indian one and Julie provided her expertise for both. Without Julie h...
andling our vendors, communication, and small details, our weddings would not have gone as smoothly as they did! Her communication was always prompt and she always kept our preferences in mind when making decisions on our behalf. Her expertise and professionalism went a long way when dealing with vendors and we still cherish her kindness and dedication to us (the bride and groom--now married)!
Thank you so much Julie for making our weddings so memorable and perfect!!
Detailed review:
Prior to the events, we had detailed calls with Julie and told her about vendors we already decided on as well as vendors we still needed. For those we still needed, Julie was able to provide some recommendations. Given her years of expertise in this field, she was really helpful with suggestions and recommendations. Julie handled most (if not all!) communications with the vendors and other email communications, but always kept us in the loop which was really helpful. She expertly dealt with problem vendors, folks who took too long to respond to us, and emergencies with vendors. She also would be in constant communication with our venues to ensure our vendors could arrive at the right time, provide us with a proper timeline, and take care of insurance/health and safety/etc. paperwork as needed. Again, because she has worked in this field for such a long time, she really knew what questions to ask and what details needed to be considered while we could not have even thought of this stuff!
On the day of our events, Julie and her team were at our venue and double-checking that our vendors were there and that things were going according to schedule and plan. Julie had put together timelines for both us (the wedding party) and our vendors which was incredibly helpful to ensure we stayed on track. Julie was there holding open doors, fixing the train on the bride's dress, and directing guests. She did all the work in the background so that the wedding party and the guests could really enjoy themselves. We also found ourselves with guests who had not RSVP'd and Julie was so quick in finding them seats and figuring out their situation. In addition, she accommodated all last-minute requests when possible and was always by our (the bride and groom's!) side when it came to minor issues on the wedding days--which was really appreciated! Julie also made sure we were fed and kept aside food and drinks for us while we were busy with pictures, greetings, and reception events. We were so thankful for that!
Overall, we would recommend Julie a thousand times over! We really felt she went above and beyond during the whole wedding process!! She was really the rock that grounded us during our weddings and we really needed her expertise during our planning phase. If you are looking for someone who has incredible wedding planning expertise in San Diego and who is an organized, prompt, professional, and kind wedding planner, then Julie really is the right pick. Thank you again Julie!

ay-of—she helped us so much in advance, asking all the right questions and catching things we didn’t even realize we missed. Her level of organization and attention to detail was incredible, but what truly stood out was how she made us feel completely attended to and cared for.
On our wedding day, Julie was a calming presence, handling every detail with such grace that we were able to relax and truly enjoy every moment. Knowing she was in charge gave us so much peace of mind, and everything ran smoothly thanks to her expertise. We can’t thank Julie enough for being such a huge part of our special day, and we’d recommend her to anyone looking for a planner who is not only professional but genuinely cares about making your wedding perfect.

to have a big wedding or a reception with dancing for that matter, so really this was my chance at a big, beautiful wedding 50 years later! And Julie made it magical. She was there for every meeting, she worked with our vendors to make sure everything was taken care of, she had countless phone calls with us during the planning phase of the event, and she made our night so special. She helped out with every detail and didn't leave anything to chance. She wanted to make sure everything was perfect for me and my husband. She guided us through every step and was there for every question and every concern. She is so professional and has so many years of experience and it definitely shows. I remember there was a time during the reception when my dress got a bit messed up and my makeup was smearing because I was so sweaty from dancing and having a great time, that she took me to the bathroom and helped fix me back up! I don't know of any other wedding coordinator that would take the time to help the bride one-on-one to fix them back up...but Julie will! She strives to make everyone feel comfortable and to make sure everything goes off without the slightest hitch. She even helped me and my daughter out when we were taking care of payments to the catering vendors, when they were giving us a bit of a hard time. Julie has no problem stepping in and taking charge--exactly what you want in a wedding coordinator. She is amazing and I plan on using her for any parties we have in the future. Pick Julie...you will never regret it! She is incredible!

meeting with her during the pre-planning phase, to the walk throughs at the venue w/ her sharing her expertise regarding tables, linens, & seating arrangements down to the smallest details, to the amazing and fun night that we had! She handled everything so smoothly & was literally the glue that held us all together. She was available at all times & kept me abreast of everything happening. Even though she was in the background, we could not have pulled this huge party off without her...and in my opinion she should hold a front & center position as she was so instrumental to every single detail of the huge event. Our pictures turned out beautiful, the ceremony was amazing, & the reception was so much fun. Thank you Julie for all you do! You will be our contact for every party going forward!

before so she really knew it inside & out. You can tell that Julie has been in the business a long time which was super helpful. She was available to help answer all of our questions until she took over the coordination with all vendors the month prior and that took a lot off our plates. What I really appreciated about Julie was that she doesn't mess around. She knows her stuff, is quick to make decisions, she'll rally everyone together, she gets things done. Our day went off without a hitch, literally no issues and I think a huge part of that was because of Julie. She even kept her composure when some groomsmen ran off right before the ceremony to get pizza!! It was the best day of our lives, thank you Julie for everything!!!

This review is LONG overdue! We got married 7.4.2022 at Etherial Gardens but our original date was 2.25.2021. Due to the pandemic, we needed to reschedule our wedding date. Julie w...
as amicable, professional, attentive, and willing to get on calls with us throughout the covid ordeal. What we loved about Julie is that although there was a long period between our original date and new wedding date, she was extremely organized with the original notes from the venue, us, and any discussions we had with the vendors. Plus, she has excellent relationships and connections with the local vendors. Julie doesn't play around either! She tells it how it is and won't sugarcoat things for you. She will let you know if something is a good idea or not but will always side with what you want as a couple.
The day of our wedding, we did not notice ANYTHING WRONG. If anything did happen, we weren't aware or she fixed it right away. She made the whole day flow flawlessly. I would HIGHLY recommend Julie as your wedding planner. We booked her for the month but honestly, the month service became almost a two year service commitment. She is reasonably priced for her years of expertise and you can't beat her price compared to other wedding planners that may offer less services in their packages. She went ABOVE AND BEYOND for booking her for the month of coordination service. I am a very hands on person so I loved planning my wedding but Julie was the icing on the cake I needed. That last month before your wedding, YOU WILL NEED HELP and of course, the day of your wedding. Our venue provided in-house event coordinators but Julie completed the team. Again, highly recommend Julie, from The Best Wedding For You in San Diego, CA for your wedding, whether it is for the month of coordination, month of coordination Plus, or a full service coordination. Oh and her husband is a DJ too!

In looking for a wedding planner for our wedding day, Julie Scrivener came highly recommended by our wedding venue, the Japanese Friendship Garden at Balboa Park. It was apparent ...
from our first conversation that Julie was passionate and a seasoned veteran when it came to San Diego wedding planning. Her connections to fabulous vendors that she had built great relationships and repertoire with was an unparalleled asset when it came to planning our wedding. Julie was communicative, patient, kind and insightful through multiple COVID postponements from the start of planning our wedding in early 2019 to finally celebrating July 3, 2022. Julie particularly shined through on the day of our wedding - everything went smoothly and calmly, and Julie made sure that my husband & I were well taken care of. Thank you, Julie, for the years of planning and for being such an important part of our special once in a lifetime day!

Julie is amazing on all fronts- organized, professional, knowledgeable. We did the month of coordinator. She is reasonably priced and as a couple made of graduate/medical students ...
that was something important to us. She is also very nice and helpful. When our wedding was postponed twice (i.e. 3 different wedding dates) due to the covid pandemic, she was flexible and willing to continue to work with us. I will say to look at what the wedding coordinator option includes: we didn't realize that creating a layout of the venue (i.e. where tables, chairs, DJ, cake, buffet, etc.) was supposed to be completed by us and not her. (Thankfully she helped us create a layout as she knew the venue and was able to give her input!!) Only thing that probably could've been improved (and it's very minute) was the creating the "day of schedule" on word doc and having us edit and send to her... it probably would have been easier to create a google doc because then we could just comment/edit at the same time. But she's been in the business for 10+ years so she has a method that works for her! On the wedding day itself, Julie was very organized and if there were mini fires (or really any fires) we had no idea because she was able to handle it all so we could enjoy our wedding worry/stress free. Would 100% choose to work with Julie and recommend you all to do the same too!

Julie Scrivener is an outstanding wedding planner and did such a wonderful job with our August 2021 wedding! We interviewed a few planners and chose her, and are so glad we did. ...
She was very professional, organized, detail-oriented and guiding without being pushy. She gave us endless direction, ideas, options, but always reminded us "this is your wedding so you can do whatever you'd like!" Our wedding day went perfectly thanks to Julie's organization, planning & hard work.
We also went with her "team" package and used her husband DJ Mick as our DJ. He is super entertaining and really had a knack for the small details that are involved in the vibe of the evening. They both really knew how to set expectations for our guests to let them know we were all going to have a blast!
5 stars plus!!!

I cannot say enough good things about our fairy godmother aka wedding planner Julie! Where do I begin. I grew up in San Diego and moved away after college but always dreamed about ...
coming home to get married. I just want to say whether you are a local or long distance bride Julie goes above and beyond in every way to make your day the best it can be! Not only is she the sweetest lady but she truly cares about what she does. She starts about three months before your wedding with every referral you could possibly imagine! From our grooms cake to room blocks at Lowes for our out of town guests (including us). Then a month before she really gets into all the details including a four page information page where she goes over every possible detail she may need to know! From the moment you walk in to the moment you leave! She coordinated our entire timeline which was so difficult to nail down. She put out our name cards, and decorated our plates with cookies and custom m&m’s not to mention taking down our floral arch from our ceremony and putting it on our sweetheart table. We literally would not have been able to get married in my home town without Julie!. Julie I cannot thank-you enough for making this wedding one we will remember all our lives! I highly recommend her.

Julie is truly a life saver! By far the best money we spent on our wedding was having Julie help us with the entire planning process! She is worth every penny! We had a COVID-postp...
oned wedding and would have been incredibly stressed if it wasn't for her amazing coordination! Throughout the 2-year long wedding process, she was always extremely responsive, organized and really helped us plan for things we never even considered! Especially on the wedding day, it was amazing how well everything was coordinated and she really helped to keep us on schedule. Julie also did so much behind the scenes to coordinate with our wedding vendors, which took everything off our plate! I truly recommend her services to everyone and highly recommend getting the full package! You won't be sorry!

My husband and I hired Julie (and Mick) for our wedding and we're so glad we did. Julie helped us with everything from sourcing and booking vendors to day-of coordination services....
She was so helpful throughout the entire process and was an invaluable source of knowledge for us to draw on as we figured out different aspects of our wedding weekend. Julie did an amazing job juggling all the moving pieces leading up to (and on the day of) the wedding. On our wedding day, everything ran so smoothly thanks to her attention to detail, professionalism, and poise. She even managed to help our groomsmen pull off a big last minute surprise without disrupting the flow of the wedding at all! Honestly, Julie is fantastic and I would highly recommend her. She'll make sure your day is flawless.

Julie was so incredible from start to finish! She always made us feel like we were her most important couple, and was quick and attentive wit her communications. She was able to re...
commend vendors within our budget for every aspect of our ceremony and even hung in there with us when we had to postpone for a year due to covid. On the day of our big event, everything went smoothly and perfectly. If there were any hiccups, we wouldn't have known because Julie kept everything moving on her end so we could just enjoy our day. I highly recommend her to anyone in San Diego looking for a wedding planner.

My husband and I both agree that hiring Julie was the best decision we made for our wedding. Looking back I have no idea what we would have done without her. We originally hired Ju...
lie for our 2020 wedding that due to the pandemic needed to be postponed to 2021. Once we made the decision to move our date Julie immediately contacted all our vendors and gave us new dates that worked for everyone. I head so many horror stories about couples trying to postpone but ours was so easy and that was all due to the hard work of Julie. You wouldn’t have even known it was her first pandemic!
Julie made every part of the process of planning our wedding easy. She has contacts with the best vendors, including her husband Mick who was our incredible DJ! Our wedding day was perfect and I didn’t need to think or stress about anything. Julie was incredibly organized and has her weddings down to a science. I can’t recommend her services enough!

We would not have made it through the wedding planning process without Julie! She helped us with vendor selection, logistics, day of timeline, and answered our many, many questions...
along the way. She also helped us postpone due to the pandemic, which made a very stressful process as easy as it could have been! She was also very sensitive to family member's safety concerns and came up with great ideas to keep everyone comfortable. The day of our wedding went so smoothly and everyone was able to relax and completely enjoy the day, all thanks to Julie!
